Answer

To display a popup menu in Tkinter, you can use the tkinter.Menu widget. This widget allows you to create a drop-down menu that can be displayed when the user right-clicks a widget or uses a keyboard shortcut.

Work Step by Step

Here is an example code to display a popup menu: import tkinter as tk def popup_menu(event): popup.tk_popup(event.x_root, event.y_root) root = tk.Tk() popup = tk.Menu(root, tearoff=0) popup.add_command(label="Open") popup.add_command(label="Save") popup.add_command(label="Close") root.bind("", popup_menu) root.mainloop() In this example, when the user right-clicks anywhere in the window, the popup_menu function is called, which displays the popup menu at the current mouse position. You can add more menu items to the popup menu by calling add_command or other methods on the popup object.
